以下将结合附图及实施例来详细说明本发明的实施方式，借此对本发明如何应用技术手段来解决技术问题，并达成技术效果的实现过程能充分理解并据以实施。需要说明的是，只要不构成冲突，本发明中的各个实施例以及各实施例中的各个特征可以相互结合，所形成的技术方案均在本发明的保护范围之内。The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, in which the present invention can be applied to the technical problems, and the implementation of the technical effects can be fully understood and implemented. It should be noted that the various embodiments of the present invention and the various features of the various embodiments may be combined with each other, and the technical solutions formed are all within the scope of the present invention.
图1为现有的阵列基板行驱动电路的检测装置的结构示意图。如图1所示，现有的阵列基板行驱动电路的检测装置包括输入模块101、获取模块102和检测模块103。FIG. 1 is a schematic structural view of a conventional detecting device for an array substrate row driving circuit. As shown in FIG. 1 , the detecting device of the conventional array substrate row driving circuit includes an input module 101, an obtaining module 102, and a detecting module 103.
具体地，输入模块101向阵列基板行驱动电路104的第一级行驱动单元输入用于正常驱动该行驱动电路104的测试信号，以使阵列基板行驱动电路104能够正常扫描。获取模块102获取阵列基板行驱动电路104的最后一级行驱动单元的输出信号。检测模块103通过检测阵列基板行驱动电路104的最后一级行驱动单元的输出信号的波形是否正常，来判断整个阵列基板行驱动电路104的结构是否存在驱动不良。Specifically, the input module 101 inputs a test signal for normally driving the row driving circuit 104 to the first-stage row driving unit of the array substrate row driving circuit 104 to enable the array substrate row driving circuit 104 to scan normally. The acquisition module 102 acquires an output signal of the last stage row driving unit of the array substrate row driving circuit 104. The detecting module 103 determines whether the structure of the entire array substrate row driving circuit 104 has a driving failure by detecting whether the waveform of the output signal of the last-stage row driving unit of the array substrate row driving circuit 104 is normal.
在现有的阵列基板行驱动电路104中，每级行驱动单元驱动与之对应的一条栅极线，并且采用移位寄存器将本级行驱动单元的驱动信号传递至下一级行驱动单元。一般来讲，将左侧阵列基板行驱动电路104和右侧阵列基板行驱动电路104分别设置在显示区域的两侧。即，将包括奇数行的行驱动单元的行驱动电路104设置在显示区域的左侧，将包括偶数行的行驱动单元的行驱动电路104设置在显示区域的右侧。采用隔行扫描的驱动方式，使左侧阵列基板行驱动电路104和右侧阵列基板行驱动电路104交替输出驱动信号。In the conventional array substrate row driving circuit 104, each row of row driving cells drives a gate line corresponding thereto, and a shift register is used to transfer the driving signals of the row driving cells of the first stage to the next row driving cells. Generally, the left array substrate row driving circuit 104 and the right array substrate row driving circuit 104 are respectively disposed on both sides of the display region. That is, the row driving circuit 104 of the row driving unit including the odd rows is disposed on the left side of the display area, and the row driving circuit 104 of the row driving unit including the even rows is disposed on the right side of the display region. The driving method of the interlaced scanning causes the left array substrate row driving circuit 104 and the right array substrate row driving circuit 104 to alternately output driving signals.
下面以左侧阵列基板行驱动电路104为例，来说明现有技术中行驱动电路104的检测方法。The detection method of the row driving circuit 104 in the prior art will be described below by taking the left array substrate row driving circuit 104 as an example.
具体地，输入模块101与行驱动电路104的第一级行驱动单元的输入端相连，用于向行驱动电路104的第一级行驱动单元输入测试信号。这里，行驱动电路104包括多个级联的行驱动单元，即第一级行驱动单元、第三级行驱动单元、第五级行驱动单元、…、第n级行驱动单元、…、第2N-1级行驱动单元、第2N+1级行驱动单元。其中n表示行驱动单元的序号，n为区间[1,2N+1]内的奇数，2N+1表示该行驱动电路104具有的行驱动单元的总数。 Specifically, the input module 101 is connected to the input terminal of the first-stage row driving unit of the row driving circuit 104 for inputting a test signal to the first-level row driving unit of the row driving circuit 104. Here, the row driving circuit 104 includes a plurality of cascaded row driving units, that is, a first-level row driving unit, a third-level row driving unit, a fifth-level row driving unit, ..., an n-th row driving unit, ..., 2N-1 row drive unit and 2N+1 row drive unit. Where n represents the serial number of the row driving unit, n is an odd number in the interval [1, 2N+1], and 2N+1 represents the total number of row driving units that the row driving circuit 104 has.
图2示出了现有的阵列基板行驱动电路104的输出波形示意图。在图2中，U2D表示正向扫描信号，D2U表示反向扫描信号，CK1表示第一时钟信号、CK3表示第三时钟信号，STV表示帧开始信号，GOA_OUT(1)表示第一级行驱动单元的输出信号，GATE(1)表示第一行栅极信号，GOA_OUT(3)表示第三级行驱动单元的输出信号，GATE(3)表示第三行栅极信号，GOA_OUT(5)表示第五级行驱动单元的输出信号，GATE(5)表示第五行栅极信号。在对左侧阵列基板行驱动电路104进行检测时，主要对该侧阵列基板行驱动电路104的最后一级行驱动单元的输出信号进行波形测量，以基于测量结果确定该侧阵列基板行驱动电路104的工作状态。若测量结果显示没有正常的周期方波波形(一般频率为60Hz)输出，则认为该侧阵列基板行驱动电路104整体失效。FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the output waveform of the conventional array substrate row driving circuit 104. In FIG. 2, U2D represents a forward scan signal, D2U represents a reverse scan signal, CK1 represents a first clock signal, CK3 represents a third clock signal, STV represents a frame start signal, and GOA_OUT(1) represents a first stage row drive unit. The output signal, GATE (1) represents the first row of gate signals, GOA_OUT (3) represents the output signal of the third-row row driver unit, GATE (3) represents the third row of gate signals, and GOA_OUT (5) represents the fifth. The output signal of the row row driving unit, GATE (5) represents the fifth row of gate signals. When the left array substrate row driving circuit 104 is detected, the output signal of the last row driving unit of the side array substrate row driving circuit 104 is mainly subjected to waveform measurement to determine the side array substrate row driving circuit based on the measurement result. 104 working status. If the measurement result shows that there is no normal periodic square wave waveform (general frequency is 60 Hz) output, it is considered that the side array substrate row driving circuit 104 as a whole fails.
对右侧阵列基板行驱动电路104进行检测的方法与上述检测方法雷同，在此不再赘述。The method for detecting the right array substrate row driving circuit 104 is the same as the above detection method, and details are not described herein again.
可见，现有技术提供的阵列基板行驱动电路104的检测方案一般只能反映出阵列基板行驱动电路104整体的异常，而不能确定具体发生异常的行驱动单元，从而加大了对异常解析的难度。It can be seen that the detection scheme of the array substrate row driving circuit 104 provided by the prior art generally only reflects the abnormality of the entire array substrate row driving circuit 104, and cannot determine the row driving unit in which the abnormality occurs, thereby increasing the abnormality analysis. Difficulty.
为了解决上述技术问题，本发明实施例提供了一种阵列基板行驱动电路的检测装置及方法。In order to solve the above technical problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a detection apparatus and method for an array substrate row driving circuit.
第一实施例First embodiment
一般来说，左侧阵列基板行驱动电路和右侧阵列基板行驱动电路是分开检测的。所用的检测方法相同。因此，下面以检测左侧阵列基板行驱动电路为例进行说明。Generally, the left array substrate row driver circuit and the right array substrate row driver circuit are separately detected. The detection method used is the same. Therefore, the following description will be made by taking an example of detecting the left array substrate row driving circuit.
图3为根据本发明第一实施例的阵列基板行驱动电路(这里，为左侧阵列基板行驱动电路，简称行驱动电路)的检测装置的结构示意图。如图3所示，检测装置主要包括输入模块301、获取模块302和检测模块303。3 is a schematic structural view of a detecting device of an array substrate row driving circuit (here, a left array substrate row driving circuit, abbreviated as a row driving circuit) according to the first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the detecting device mainly includes an input module 301, an obtaining module 302, and a detecting module 303.
具体地，输入模块301与行驱动电路304的第一级行驱动单元的输入端相连，用于向行驱动电路304的第一级行驱动单元输入测试信号。这里，行驱动电路304包括多个级联的行驱动单元，即第一级行驱动单元、第三级行驱动单元、第五级行驱动单元、…、第n级行驱动单元、…、第2N-1级行驱动单元、第2N+1级行驱动单元。其中n表示行驱动单元的序号，n为区间[1,2N+1]内的奇数，2N+1表示该行驱动电路304具有的行驱动单元的总数。 Specifically, the input module 301 is connected to the input terminal of the first-stage row driving unit of the row driving circuit 304 for inputting a test signal to the first-level row driving unit of the row driving circuit 304. Here, the row driving circuit 304 includes a plurality of cascaded row driving units, that is, a first-level row driving unit, a third-level row driving unit, a fifth-level row driving unit, ..., an n-th row driving unit, ..., 2N-1 row drive unit and 2N+1 row drive unit. Where n represents the sequence number of the row drive unit, n is an odd number within the interval [1, 2N+1], and 2N+1 represents the total number of row drive units that the row drive circuit 304 has.
获取模块302与行驱动电路304的各级行驱动单元的输出端相连，用于获取各级行驱动单元的输出信号。The acquisition module 302 is connected to the output terminals of the row driving units of the row driving circuit 304 for acquiring the output signals of the row driving units of each stage.
检测模块303与获取模块302相连，用于在判断出行驱动电路304工作异常时，根据所有级行驱动单元的输出信号，确定异常工作的行驱动单元。The detecting module 303 is connected to the obtaining module 302 for determining the row driving unit that operates abnormally according to the output signals of all the row driving units when determining that the traveling driving circuit 304 is abnormal.
以下详细说明本实施例的阵列基板行驱动电路304的检测装置的检测原理。首先，输入模块301向行驱动单元304的第一级行驱动单元输入用于正常驱动该行驱动电路304的测试信号，以使行驱动电路304能够正常扫描。这里，测试信号为帧开始信号。获取模块302获取行驱动电路304中各个行驱动单元的输出信号。检测模块303在判断出行驱动电路304工作异常时，根据该行驱动电路304中所有级行驱动单元的输出信号，确定该行驱动电路304中异常工作的行驱动单元。The detection principle of the detecting device of the array substrate row driving circuit 304 of the present embodiment will be described in detail below. First, the input module 301 inputs a test signal for normally driving the row driving circuit 304 to the first-stage row driving unit of the row driving unit 304 to enable the row driving circuit 304 to scan normally. Here, the test signal is a frame start signal. The acquisition module 302 acquires an output signal of each row driving unit in the row driving circuit 304. When determining that the row driving circuit 304 is abnormal, the detecting module 303 determines the row driving unit that operates abnormally in the row driving circuit 304 according to the output signals of all the row driving units in the row driving circuit 304.
在一个优选的实施例中，检测模块303还可以包括判断单元10，其用于根据行驱动电路304中最后一级行驱动单元的输出信号来确定该行驱动电路304的工作状态。这里，行驱动电路304的工作状态指的是行驱动电路304整体的工作状态，其主要反映行驱动电路304整体正常工作或异常工作。换句话说，行驱动电路304的工作状态包括行驱动电路304工作正常和行驱动电路304工作异常两个状态。In a preferred embodiment, the detecting module 303 may further include a determining unit 10 for determining an operating state of the row driving circuit 304 according to an output signal of the last row driving unit in the row driving circuit 304. Here, the operating state of the row driving circuit 304 refers to the overall operating state of the row driving circuit 304, which mainly reflects the normal operation or abnormal operation of the row driving circuit 304 as a whole. In other words, the operational state of the row driver circuit 304 includes two states in which the row driver circuit 304 operates normally and the row driver circuit 304 operates abnormally.
检测右侧阵列基板行驱动电路304(图中未显出)与检测左侧阵列基板行驱动电路304的检测装置及检测方法相同，这里不再赘述。The detection of the right array substrate row driving circuit 304 (not shown) is the same as the detection device and the detection method for detecting the left array substrate row driving circuit 304, and details are not described herein again.
应用本实施例的阵列基板行驱动电路304的检测装置，在行驱动电路304工作异常时，根据获取的每一个行驱动单元的输出信号来确定异常工作的行驱动单元。相较于现有技术中只能根据获取的最后一级行驱动单元的输出信号来反映行驱动电路304整体工作状态的方案来说，本实施例在得知行驱动电路304整体异常时，能够进一步判断出异常工作的行驱动单元的位置，有利于提高行驱动单元异常检测与解析的效率。可见，本实施例能够得到更为具体的检测结果，从而有利于后续对行驱动电路304的修复，显著缩短了行驱动电路304缺陷的排查及修复时间。When the row driving circuit 304 operates abnormally, the row driving unit of the abnormally operating row is determined according to the obtained output signal of each row driving unit. Compared with the prior art, the overall operation state of the row driving circuit 304 can be reflected only according to the output signal of the obtained last-level row driving unit. This embodiment can further improve when the row driving circuit 304 is abnormal overall. Judging the position of the row driving unit that works abnormally is beneficial to improving the efficiency of abnormal detection and analysis of the row driving unit. It can be seen that the present embodiment can obtain more specific detection results, thereby facilitating the subsequent repair of the row driving circuit 304, and significantly shortening the troubleshooting and repair time of the row driving circuit 304.
综上所述，本实施例的阵列基板行驱动电路304的检测装置，在显示面板的检测技术领域中具有实际的指导意义。In summary, the detecting device of the array substrate row driving circuit 304 of the present embodiment has practical guiding significance in the field of detecting technology of the display panel.

As shown in FIG. 4, the detecting module 303 of the present embodiment may include a superimposing unit 30, a determining unit 40, and a plurality of converting units 20. Each of the conversion units 20 is connected to the acquisition module 302. Moreover, each of the conversion units 20 has a one-to-one correspondence with the first-level row driving unit, and is configured to convert the output signal of the row-row driving unit acquired by the obtaining module 302 into a pulse signal, and make the pulse signal correspond to the pulse of the other row driving unit. The signals do not overlap each other. The superimposing units 30 are respectively connected to the respective converting units 20 for superimposing the pulse signals output by all the converting units 20 to obtain superimposed signals. The determining unit 40 is connected to the superimposing unit 30 for determining the row driving unit that operates abnormally according to the superimposed signal obtained by the superimposing unit 30.

Here, the display module can intuitively display the waveform of the superimposed signal to the staff, so that the worker can quickly and intuitively know the row driving unit in which the abnormality occurs.
下面详细说明本实施例的检测模块303筛查异常工作的行驱动单元的方法。The method of the detection module 303 of the present embodiment for screening the abnormally operating row driving unit will be described in detail below.
如图4所示，每个转换单元20通过获取模块302得到相应行驱动单元的输出信号。具体地，在第一扫描周期内，第一级行驱动单元对应的转换单元20，用于将第一级行驱动单元的输出信号转换成一个脉冲信号。在第三扫描周期内，第三级行驱动单元对应的转换单元20，用于将第三级行驱动单元的输出信号转换成一个脉冲信号。假设一共有1920级行驱动单元，依此类推，第1919级行驱动单元对应的转换单元20，用于将第1919级行驱动单元的输出信号转换成一个脉冲信号。因此，对于本实施例的行驱动电路304来说，一共得到960个脉冲信号。并且，重要地，这960个脉冲信号互不交叠。叠加单元30将这960个互不交叠的脉冲信号进行叠加，得到一个叠加信号。确定单元40根据得到的该叠加信号确定异常工作的行驱动单元。As shown in FIG. 4, each conversion unit 20 obtains an output signal of the corresponding row driving unit through the acquisition module 302. Specifically, in the first scan period, the conversion unit 20 corresponding to the first-level row driving unit is configured to convert the output signal of the first-level row driving unit into a pulse signal. In the third scanning period, the conversion unit 20 corresponding to the third-level row driving unit is configured to convert the output signal of the third-level row driving unit into a pulse signal. Assuming that there is a total of 1920 row row driving units, and so on, the converting unit 20 corresponding to the 1919th row driving unit is configured to convert the output signal of the 1919th row driving unit into a pulse signal. Therefore, for the row driving circuit 304 of the present embodiment, a total of 960 pulse signals are obtained. And, importantly, these 960 pulse signals do not overlap each other. The superimposing unit 30 superimposes the 960 non-overlapping pulse signals to obtain a superimposed signal. The determining unit 40 determines the row driving unit that operates abnormally based on the obtained superimposed signal.
在一个优选的实施例中，每个转换单元20包括与非门电路。与非门电路用于将均与该转换单元20相对应的行驱动单元的时钟信号和输出信号进行与非运算，得到脉冲信号。此处，时钟信号和输出信号均与某一个转换单元20相对应。这样，通过此处的与非运算，可保证各个转换单元20输出的脉冲信号彼此无交集，即可保证各个转换单元20输出的脉冲信号互不交叠。In a preferred embodiment, each conversion unit 20 includes a NAND gate circuit. The NAND circuit is used for NANDing the clock signal and the output signal of the row driving unit each corresponding to the conversion unit 20 to obtain a pulse signal. Here, both the clock signal and the output signal correspond to a certain conversion unit 20. In this way, by the NAND operation here, it can be ensured that the pulse signals output by the respective conversion units 20 do not overlap each other, and the pulse signals output by the respective conversion units 20 are not overlapped.
本实施例采用与非门电路得到互不交叠的脉冲信号的原理是：由于本实施例行驱动电路304中的各级行驱动单元的时钟信号互不交叠，因此各级行驱动单元的输出信号通过与非门电路和对应的时钟信号进行与非运算后得到的脉冲信号也互不交叠。The principle that the NAND circuit circuit obtains the pulse signals that do not overlap each other in this embodiment is: since the clock signals of the row driving units of the row driving circuit 304 in this embodiment do not overlap each other, the driving units of each row of the driving units are The pulse signals obtained by the NAND operation of the output signal through the NAND gate circuit and the corresponding clock signal also do not overlap each other.
在一个优选的实施例中，确定单元40具体用于：确定叠加信号中的缺失波形，并将缺失波形对应的行驱动单元确定为异常工作的行驱动单元。下面参照图5具体说明确定单 元40的工作原理。In a preferred embodiment, the determining unit 40 is specifically configured to: determine a missing waveform in the superimposed signal, and determine the row driving unit corresponding to the missing waveform as the row driving unit that operates abnormally. The determination order will be specifically described below with reference to FIG. 5. The working principle of Yuan 40.
图5示出了本发明第二实施例的正常行驱动电路304对应的叠加信号的波形示意图，以及由于第n级行驱动单元失效而导致的异常行驱动电路304对应的叠加信号的波形示意图。当第n级行驱动单元工作异常时，该第n级行驱动单元未能输出相应的输出信号。由于行驱动单元彼此之间都是级联的，即上一级行驱动单元的输出信号作为下一级行驱动单元的工作触发信号，因此第n级之后的行驱动单元(第n+2级行驱动单元至第1919级行驱动单元)均无法输出相应的输出信号，从而会导致第n级行驱动单元至第1919级行驱动单元对应的波形的缺失。如图5所示，第n级行驱动单元对应的波形缺失，第n+2级行驱动单元对应的波形缺失，之后第n+4级行驱动单元至第1919级行驱动单元对应的波形均缺失。由于脉冲信号互不交叠，因此能够直观地从叠加信号中确定缺失波形及其相对应的行驱动单元。这样，确定单元40可以根据叠加信号中的缺失波形来确定工作异常的行驱动单元。参照图5，由于在叠加信号中，与第n级行驱动单元至第1999级行驱动单元对应的波形都缺失，因此可以确定叠加信号是从第n级行驱动单元处开始缺失的，从而可以推导出异常工作的行驱动单元为第n级行驱动单元。5 is a waveform diagram showing a superimposed signal corresponding to the normal line driving circuit 304 of the second embodiment of the present invention, and a waveform diagram of a superimposed signal corresponding to the abnormal line driving circuit 304 due to the failure of the nth stage row driving unit. When the nth row driving unit operates abnormally, the nth row driving unit fails to output a corresponding output signal. Since the row driving units are cascaded with each other, that is, the output signal of the upper row driving unit is used as the working trigger signal of the next row driving unit, the row driving unit after the nth stage (n+2 level) The row driving unit to the 1919th row driving unit cannot output the corresponding output signals, which may cause the waveform corresponding to the nth row driving unit to the 1919th row driving unit to be missing. As shown in FIG. 5, the waveform corresponding to the nth row driving unit is missing, the waveform corresponding to the n+2th row driving unit is missing, and then the waveform corresponding to the n+4th row driving unit to the 1919th row driving unit is Missing. Since the pulse signals do not overlap each other, it is possible to intuitively determine the missing waveform and its corresponding row driving unit from the superimposed signals. Thus, the determining unit 40 can determine the row driving unit that operates abnormally based on the missing waveform in the superimposed signal. Referring to FIG. 5, since the waveform corresponding to the nth stage row driving unit to the 1999th row driving unit is missing in the superimposed signal, it can be determined that the superimposed signal is missing from the nth row driving unit, thereby The row drive unit that derives the abnormal operation is the nth row drive unit.
应用本实施例的检测模块303，巧妙地利用时钟信号及与非门电路的特点，将各级行驱动单元的输出信号转换成互不交叠的脉冲信号，然后再根据由各个脉冲信号叠加而成的叠加信号中的缺失波形，来确定异常工作的行驱动单元。可见，本实施例检测模块303的结构简单，为准确有效地确定异常工作的行驱动单元提供了直观精确的数据支持。Applying the detecting module 303 of the embodiment, using the characteristics of the clock signal and the NAND circuit, the output signals of the row driving units of each level are converted into pulse signals that do not overlap each other, and then superimposed according to the respective pulse signals. The missing waveform in the superimposed signal is used to determine the row driver unit for abnormal operation. It can be seen that the structure of the detecting module 303 of the embodiment is simple, and provides intuitive and accurate data support for accurately and effectively determining the row driving unit that operates abnormally.
